Super Bowl hero Tracy Porter arrested on drug, battery charges
BATON ROUGE - A Super Bowl Saint was arrested in Baton Rouge on drug and battery charges.
According to the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office, officers arrested Tracy Porter on Oct. 10 after a woman claimed he attacked her five days earlier.
According to the affidavit, the unidentified victim came to police on Oct. 5 and told them she was in an argument with Porter that turned physical. The victim stated that she met with Porter to get the keys to her home back, but he was upset and pushed her up against his car.
The victim told police that Porter then grabbed her around the face and neck. The police officer taking the report noted that the woman had fresh bruises consistent with her story.
Police found a prescription painkiller on Porter, but he did not have a prescription for it. According to the affidavit, officers found 46 more pills in his car along with one ounce of marijuana, a grinder and a 9mm firearm.
Police say Porter admitted that all those items belonged to him.
Porter was then booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison for possession with intent to distribute Acetaminophen, possession of a fire arm with a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of marijuana and battery of a dating partner.
Porter is famous in Saints' lore for his game-clinching interception and return for touchdown against the Colts in the Super Bowl in 2010.

Somebody, please, tell me again why the NFL player protests are supposed to mean something?
Because most are good people who do much good in this world. Honestly i could care less about the NFL but credit were credit is due. I believe a majority of them are good people just like the rest of us.
It is sad that the nimrods among them are now taking over the NFL narrative with their BS.
Are you able to cite any NFL protestor who has an arrest like that? You do realize that protests have NOTHING to do about the NFL or the player characters right?
Too bad statistics would disagree with you on your false narrative about it being a false narrative!
Kind of like the fact that whites are far more likely to get hired and are paid more than nonwhites
Or the fact that black working class with a high school diploma is paid on average $150 less than their white counterpart
or how black offenders receive 10% longer sentences for crimes than their white counterparts or 21% more likely to receive mandatory minimum sentences than their white counter parts as well as 20% more likely to be sent to prison
And I guess that has nothing to do with other statistics like 75% of black babies being born out of wedlock and growing up in neighborhoods ignored by liberal mayors where there are no opportunities and criminals are glorified.
Yes that has absolutely NOTHING to do with it!.....thanks for acknowledging
It's that spirit of denial that keeps things the way they are in the worst cities in the country.
Really? Then please tell me what does 75% out of wedlock births have to do with the fact that black people are paid LESS than their white counterparts? Please list the many reasons how liberal mayors are to blame for the US Justice system giving black males 10% more time for a conviction as his white male counterpart. Please elaborate on your analysis about where a person lives effects the fact as a black man you are more likely to go to prison than get probation than your white counterpart.......I await your response with baited breath
If I have to explain how a stable two parent family with a father to guide young men and a mother to nurture isn't a built in advantage, then it's probably a lost cause already.
If you want to see a mayor can have a bad effect look no further than Comrade de Blasio and the toxic environment he created by throwing his own police force under the bus.
If you think having a system of single moms with kids from multiple dads with generational welfare dependency is the recipe for success than keep on believing as you do.
Well said.
Thanks.
Jeremy, your post lacks logic.
And maybe YOU should have researched the Assata's Daughters website before making that ridiculous comment. The website never mentions MLK, Jr or Malcolm X.
In the website's "About" sections, there is never a mention of these radical BLM black women wanting to work together with white, Hispanic, and Asian women to improve the lives of ALL WOMEN .
Class dismissed.
And you know what is also not mentioned either....HATING COPS!
Sorry but I think I'll pass on a civil rights class from Trump University!
I have no doubt that since the organization honors a cop killer and thug named Joanne Chesimard/Assata Shakur by naming it after her, these radical women and girls also hate cops.
